Zero Beating.
Matching the signal from the other transceiver and the signal from this transceiver in CW mode is called zero
beating. The transceiver can zero in the other transceiver as follows:
1. Turn VOX off. Press the key down. The side tone will be heard from the speaker.
2. Adjust the tuning knob so that the audio tone from the other transceiver is equal to the side tone frequency
(800 Hz) generated when you depress the key. When they match you are zero beat.
